Item Description:
This is a 404XR/MX80L XY stage that was kept as a 'spare unit' and
has been used very little if at all and it is in perfect working condition.
I have also included all the drivers and power supplies necessary to
operate the stage. The drivers have been configured and everything
has been wired together and tested using Mach3 software (see video).
The X stage is a model 404100XRMP with a 100mm rated stroke
length, but the max stroke length is actually about 120mm (4-3/4").
The ballscrew is precision ground 16mm dia. x 5mm pitch and
the rails are model Hiwin MGNR9H with two bearings on each rail.
The 404XR actuator has (3) proximity sensors (Limit / Homing)
that are mounted to the side of the actuators in a protective
aluminum housing with clear plastic top cover & 5-pin connector.
The 404XR comes with a Lin Engineering 4118C-01D nema17
dual-shaft stepper motor with a Vexta D4CL-5.0 clean damper.
The 4118C stepper also has a US Digital E2-4096-197-IE encoder
attached.
The Y stage is a model MX80LT04-MPD13..E9 linear servo actuator
that has the highest resolution encoder available, with a resolution
of 0.01um or 10 nanometer (0.01 microns = 0.00001mm).
The MX80L also comes with Limit & Homing sensors built-in.
The Vix500AH servo drive is brand new and is used to control
the MX80L using step/direction signals sent from a Mach3
breakout board or indexer. The MX80L has a 0.01um encoder
that requires 100,000 steps per millimeter. The max speed of
MX80L is about 30mm/second. Please note that you can also
use the MX80L without the Renishaw Interpolater to get a 5um
resolution and this will dramatically increase the speed.
The E-DC stepper drive is used to control the nema17 stepper
motor on the 404XR using step/direction signals sent from a
Mach3 breakout board or indexer. The E-DC drive is currently
configured at 10,000 steps per rotation which equals 2,000 steps
per millimeter or 0.5um. The max speed of the 404XR is about
110mm/second (no load). Please note that the E-DC drive can be
set at up to 50,000 steps per rotation which would increase the
resolution to 0.1um. **There is also an encoder attached to the
nema17 stepper but there is no encoder input on the E-DC drive
so you would need to attach the encoder to your indexer or
a breakout board that has an encoder input.**
Also included with this auction are the Mean Well power supplies.
The MDR-40-24 is a 24v supply that provides power to the Vix500AH
logic circuit and the SDR-240-48 is a 48v supply that powers both
the nema17 stepper motor and the MX80L linear servo motor.
The 404XR also comes with a proximity sensor cable.
The Vix500AH & E-DC drive will work with step/direction software
like Mach3 or similar. In the videos I am using a SmoothStepper
breakout board (not included with this auction) and that is the
breakout board I would recommend if you are going to use Mach3
software because you will need a high 'pulse output' to operate
the MX80L at the speeds shown in the videos I have included.

Vix500AH Manufacturer Notes:
The freely-programmable, intelligent ViX servo drive delivers high levels of functionality and flexibility in programmable motion control. With outputs in the 250-500 VA power range, ViX uses field-oriented digital control technology, to give enhanced dynamic performance with improved efficiency. Housed within an extremely compact case, ViX is suitable either for direct panel mounting or for attachment to a standard DIN rail.
The ViX series servo drive is produced in two versions having continuous current ratings of 2.5 A and 5 A at motor bus voltages up to 80VDC. A peak current capability of three times the continuous rating provides an outstanding acceleration performance. The device offers the choice of either resolver or encoder feedback (user selectable). To assist with initial commissioning, the drive can correct most motor and feedback wiring errors automatically.
ViX500 Servo Drive/Controller Features:
• Power Output Rating : 500 VA
• Drive Input Supply : 48...80VDC
• Output Current : continuous 5.0 Arms / peak 15 Arms for 2 seconds
• Analog Control or Built-in Controller (using Parker's proven EASI code)
• Powerful EASI-V Front-End Software
• Programmable Resolution
• Encoder and Resolver Feedback Supported
• High-Resolution Sine-Cosine Feedback Option (for use with Parker MX Linear Motor Positioners)
• Optional CANopen/RS485 Interface
• Field-oriented control for improved dynamic performance
• Panel or DIN rail mounting
• Compatible with Parker servo motors
A powerful front-end software package is supplied with the drive and permits straightforward, rapid configuration and tuning. When used with Parker servo motors, only the motor type number is required for full configuration. ViX intelligent drives incorporate a powerful controller using Parker's wellproven EASI command language. As well as carrying out all basic motion control functions, the controller performs more advanced operations such as external encoder following and registration moves. All necessary configuration is performed by software. In addition to an RS232C interface which is included in the standard drive, an optional factory-installed fieldbus module allows for both CANopen and RS485 communication. The base version of the drive can be controlled by step-direction signals in addition to an analog velocity or torque demand. ViX forms part of a new, fully-integrated system of motion control components which includes digital servo and stepper drives, power supplies, operator panels and extension I/Os. These components complement Parker's range of mechanical positioning systems which includes precision tables, electric cylinders and linear actuators.
E-DC Manufacturer Notes:

- Three-state current control allows the drive and motor to run cooler and more efficiently than two-state drives
- Selectable resolution up to 50,800 steps/rev
- Auto standby reduces motor current (and heating) at rest
- Provides 0.2 Amps to 4.8 Amps (peak)
